The Trust Portfolio with Joe Pulizzi

Content is infinite now, making trust scarce. Joe Pulizzi, founder of Content Marketing Institute, joins Tom Schwab to unpack "the trust portfolio": a framework for diversifying your brand's voice instead of relying on one founder or spokesperson.

Joe explains why the top podcasts and newsletters come from people, not companies, and how spreading trust across several credible voices protects a business from a single point of failure. He shares how Content Marketing Institute built out voices and why that diversification made the company more sellable. Joe also explains why AI-generated content, built on "most probable" outputs, can't replace real human differentiation.
